The Anatomy of An Inning: Richard Fitts Can Help the Red Sox
Briefly

Fitts' first pitch in the big leagues is a 96 MPH fastball down the middle that's fouled off for strike one... likely some adrenaline at play.
Fitts goes to his slider and keeps it at the bottom of the zone. DeLoach gets the bat to it, but can't drive it and lazily flies out for the first out.
If you’ve read these in the past, you’ll know how much I love the ability to throw a first pitch-breaking ball in the zone.
